Do Azure Cost analysis provide the Cost details including GST/TAX?

Answer 1

Hello Naveen N A

Yes, Azure Cost Analysis provides the cost details including GST/TAX for resources that are billed to an Azure subscription. The cost analysis data includes the gross cost of resources, which is the total amount charged to the Azure subscription, including any taxes or fees.

Azure Cost Analysis provides a breakdown of costs by service, resource, region, and time period, allowing you to understand which services and resources are driving your costs, and where you can optimize your spending. You can also view cost data by department or resource group to track spending and allocate costs to specific business units.

To ensure that the GST/TAX information is included in your Azure cost analysis data, you must enable tax information for your Azure subscription. You can do this in the Azure portal by navigating to the "Cost Management + Billing" section and selecting "Invoices" > "Download invoice data" > "Configure". Here, you can select the tax information you want to include in your cost analysis data.

Azure Cost Analysis typically provides cost details excluding taxes like GST. It offers a breakdown of expenses related to Azure services, helping users understand their cloud spending. To obtain the total cost with GST/TAX, you may need to incorporate tax rates separately when analyzing your expenses. It also assists users in estimating the expenses associated with hiring a structural engineer cost for a home inspection.
